Description

Deliciously easy egg muffins packed with diced ham, cheese, and veggies, perfect for a quick breakfast!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups finely diced ham
  • 1 1/3 cups finely grated Mexican Blend Cheese
  • 1 green bell pepper, seeds and stem cut away and finely diced
  • 3 thinly sliced green onions (optional, but recommended)
  • 15 eggs, beaten well
  • 2 tsp. Spike seasoning (or use any seasoning blend that is good with eggs)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375F/190C.
  2. Spray silicone baking cups with nonstick spray.
  3. Dice ham and green pepper and slice green onions.
  4. In the bottom of the baking cups layer the ham, green pepper, green onions, and cheese, dividing each equally among the 12 baking cups.
  5. Break eggs into a bowl or large measuring cup that has a pour spout, then beat eggs and Spike Seasoning with a fork until well combined.
  6. Pour eggs over the other ingredients until the muffin cups are nearly full, but not quite reaching the top.
  7. Take a small fork and gently stir to distribute the ingredients in the egg mixture.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the egg mixture is set and starting to brown slightly.
  9. Egg muffins will keep well in the refrigerator for at least a week. To reheat, microwave for 45-60 seconds.

Notes

  • Don’t cook too long in the microwave or they get rubbery.
